How to make an Origami Icosahedron - Triangle Edge modules

- For quite some time I did not know the name (and as a result wasn't able to track down the diagram) of this modular classic. I first saw it on Mark Rowes's channel and already know for some time now that this regular icosahedron was made out of Triangle Edge Modules by Lewis Simon and Bennett Arnstein. It is a model that clearly has a spot in my personal hall of fame!!

Thank you! I've built it in two hours today and it's going to be a gift for my girlfriend's bachelor degree in mathematics!
2 hours? Bit much for this one

oh my goodness, what a blast from the past. i just remembered this channel exists and i remember being so hyped about modular origami because of it xD i must have made ten of these since first watching this... makes me want to make another lol
The instructions are very clear. Assembling it takes a bit of time and patience, but it was fun to do ^__^ Thank you very much!
It took soooooo long to fold the peices, but I finally did it...and now I have to put them all together, greattttt
Easy to do‽ Making this thing was a pure hell from start to finish. But honestly, it's worth it; it looks very nice.
nice interrobang
10 minutes video took hours. Worth making! Used green, black and white papers. Takes time to create. Thanks!!
Thank you for making this video. I followed your directions making sure to use all the same colors you used in the video and it turned out great. Your tutorials are very useful. You have a new subscriber :)
11 yearsss ago ??? I cant belive
You're basically the only person on youtube that makes actually good origami tutorials :) My only complaint is that the music is too repetitive, maybe mix it up so you don't have to listen to the same bit over and over until your model is finished. And thank you for not speeding it up, everything is slow paced and easy to follow, and my model looks very nice!!
Imagine doing origami with hard rock xd
I'm almost done with it, I've only got nine pieces left! thanks for the great tutorial! I got frustrated at times, but all I had to do was go back and watch what you did! Thanks!
It was very helpful for my math project. Thank you.
I liked this video as soon as he said "Of course I don't as that is prohibited in Origami"
Love this!! Made it out perfectly!! And it's EASY!!! For those who can't managed to combine the pieces, I suggest you try using a little glue. It helps to hold them together :)
OMG!!! PLATONIC SOLID TUTORIAL VIDEO!!! (I've been waiting for one of these).. you kinda rock.
It`s a perfect Gift!
This one was fun - once you get your head around how it goes together its pretty easy too! Thanks
@Ransom90 There is a method but it's kinda hard to explain. If you look on one pentagon of the icosahedron you will see that around the edge three of the same colors will touch each other (I know that's really confusing). At :20 do you see how the icosahedron has 3 yellow units in the same place? That's the key if you don't want the same colors to touch. Just try your best to make each triangle the three different colors and you will eventually get it. Hope that helps.
Your shape would look better if all the seams were glued together and that you used a strong material such as cardboard, or even better, wood.
Patience, people. That's all you need for this. Also, if you're trying a model that needs 30 modules- construct three or five of them and see if you're capable of putting them together. If you can't figure it out, you haven't wasted your other paper.
Thank you so much for this! I made one, and gave it to my teacher for Christmas!
Thanks!
R u being serious)
Edit:*?
Can I use sticky notes?
@reymatt76 I went ahead and did the first part after coloring one side. I found in order to fold with the color on the outside you have to start folding with the color side up. that way when you finish it is shown off to the world. Hope this helps you as it did me. :)
i actually did it!!! i was always into origami but this was my most complicated project yet (im a noobie) so thank u very much i can try evn more complicated projects now!!!
@barbabellaatje I used a bit of glue for the model after sliding in the module, and it really helped when I went to add a bit of glue using the end of a pencil.
I recommend doing what I did, maybe with a toothpick but only on the tucked in area.
i like how the segments are at an edge not corner so you could probably make other shapes
like a tetrahedron or octohedron
Nice n hard work...... I will definitely make it for my exhibition..... Will u pls make a video on teaching aids for mathematics class 9...... Pls pls pls pls pls pls pls pls pls
i have watched almost every one of your vids you are a beast with paper
well.... this method is really nice n works well with icosahedron (30 pieces indicating 30 edges)
I tried the same with tetrahedron which turned out very hard... but still I succeeded
next Octahedron
this one was harder than icosa but not as hard as tetra ....
anyway thnku for the method
really awesome
This is how to make your own Phantom Ruby - the gem of unlimited power. Fun is Infinite with Sega Enterprises!
probably the most awesome model of this sort! thanks for tutorial! :-)
This is pure gold! Thanks a lot
ñ
Just finished!!!!! This one was really fun to make. the last piece was really difficult to put on for me but all in all it was pretty easy. :)
the music is so soothing...
@reymatt76 honestly, its not that hard to figure out. u know u started with the wrong side up if the color isnt on the outside. assume u start with white side up, and if its wrong, just do it over. or if u really cant stand to do that, just buy some double colored paper.
The square can be any size alsong as ALL squares you use in the model are the same size. The squares are then cut in half to produce a 2:1 ratio rectangle :)
i just finsished my model, and it looks awesome! the video is really nice. good quality, easy to follow and with a personal touch. Good work! :D
i've made 5, i love this model it's easy to do, doesn't require a crap ton of paper, and is a great display piece. i've been doing origami since 7th grade and my room is loaded full lol
this isn't perfectly origami
this includes 15 squares n u have to cut them into halves but ...
this is nice haha
well done tho
what is surprising to me is i spelled icosahedron correct when searching for this video amazing video btw
I just finished making mine. It looks pretty good.
Great vid, very informative! Took me over an hour...and the last piece was really hard to do, but I managed it! It works with 5 colors very nicely as well.
This was a lot easier than the kusudama :) Thanks for posting!
for those wondering you start colored side up
Have not made it yet but look easyer than some others so I will give it a go
whoaw i just made it and it's so great!!! it looks just like yours! i love it!
you also can use 5 colors - 6 units of each color.
then groüp all 5 colors around each corner.
Awesome Work ❤
finally, a tutorial on this (i could only find diagrams)
hey you from 11 years:)
I hate my math project....
me too
why its fun
Rxant King Me too😭
Me too. It so bored
HATE IT
lovely
Thank you so much! I'm making this for Art homework!
Great video instructions! I was able to make one myself and just uploaded a video of it. I have to say putting in the last few pieces was definitely the hardest part.
I made it and it looks GREAT! It's the best origami so far that i made. It's great for hidding stuff:)
Great videos!
i made this a while ago... it was really fun and the outcome looked really cool. :)
I LOVE IT!!!!
it took me 1 hr to make it, but it was worth it!
I LOVE YOUR UPLOADS BARBABELLAATJE!!
I learned how to make a Stellated Icosahedron, really cool!
@regnar89 lol. Actually origami doesn't require only squares. As long as the paper doesn't need to be cut in order to finish the model. You have to cut the paper to even make it a square in the first place right? Whether you did it or the manufacturer. I would hardly say Thomas Hull's FIT model isn't origami! ;D
thanks for the instructions :D I can do so many of these already
Awesome video!!! Kinda reminded me of a '90s music video XD
its probably supposed to be more tight but it depends on how you like it i would imagine.
i did that thing before to see your vid.
anyway, ty, because you posted it instead of me!
that's awesome dude! i'll try to do this if i have a spare time.
@evilscapes28 Duh! He doesn't cut it, he either buys it like that or folds on the same crease until you can rip it in half.
successfully completed. gets a bit confusing towards the end so it'd be nice to show how every piece is assembled
I just made it, it looks awesome, and is remarkbly stable :) great job!
Hey i found that you can make this with 6, 9, 12 or 16 mods to!! If you make with 6 mods it would be an triangle, just make an 3 unit ring in the start, continue making 3 unit rings. for 12 mods, just make an 4 unit ring!
You can aslo make 3 AND 4 (or 5 and 4) unit at the same thing! :D
Awesome video have inspired me to do Modular Origami, Thanks
@gueronpau97 you didn't have to watch the whole thing... you already knew what was going to happen in the video (the title and description explained it all)
woah, how'd you cut the paper with your fingers!!! I wish i fingers that cut stuff XD
lol
wow! this one is 1 of your best !! ive got 2 of them
@GoldenGirls20 well if you use a normal paper size your ball will be really huge. i recomend you to use the same size
*sings* On the day of Christmas eve, i decided to make my dad, a Icosahedron! :)
wait why did you not use scissors (because they are prohibited in origami) but also use something not square?
omg can someone tell me how big the paper needs to be so i can try to make it
That took me one h of a long time! But I am happy with the result, and it is huge! Great video :)
this will be my quest for tomorrow
dude all ur model are so crazy man...=))
great video. great origami. i love the polyhedral videos. keep em coming!
Ah, these are very good videos! I've been watching them even before I made this account; very nice! Your videos are quite the help for an expert (lulz) like me! ;).
Very nice. Thanks for sharing.
@reymatt76 i'm not trying to be smart. i just don't get your point. each paper unit has the same pattern of folds so you can't go wrong. and it says 10 x 3 different colors as simple as that and follow the pattern as the video suggest. that's it. no hard feelings dude.
@reymatt76 yeah, i guess you're right. i do like that paper better, its easier to work with. the only thing i dont like is that its kind of flimsy, making modules hard to assemble. her paper looks thicker...
the last piece is a nightmare:O
I was a bit confused in 1:22 - 1:27.But I get it.
I tried to make one but i only did like the half of it and it looks pretty good
it took me 1 hr to put it together, no joke. its 3 am now
im guessing that this module will make polyhedra w/only regular triangles right(i.g.an octahedron
Thanks for the video! I've messed up with colors for a first time,but eventually the icosahedron was finished.
Also, I've noticed, that this module can be used for other tetrahedra. Have you made any other ones using this module?
I wonder if this module can be used to make an origami dodecahedron.
NjmK - where DIY and Entertainment combine!
made the peices easy but putting it together is another thing intirely...got there in the end tho..thanks ..cam
nice vid and i was wondering why ur hands are shaking? i can see it in the movement of the peices
ohh...thank you...I can do the parts ( so easy!!!) but connecting them...so difficult...of course, I have to say that I only started a week ago...
When I construct it I always get to the last few pieces and then realise I have to put two of the same colour next to each other. I have made it successfuly once before but I think it was a fluke. How do I make sure I never get two colours the same next to each other?
It is a challenging model But fun and easy to make!!!!!!!!!!
@reymatt76 yeah no kidding. That's what I'm trying to figure out and I was going to use 5 colors anyway.
Hard to build this without patience
oh, and what paper do you use ? :)
thanks my teacher is now using this as a class project
You are putting the modules together counter clockwise
I have to do this but I don't know how to do it. My colors
Touch each other so the pattern falls apart and you didn't show the whole video you skipped it to the last piece now I'm stuck. HELP! D:
shanelle algama me too
You can see that each triangular surface has three colors--RED, YELLOW, GREEN--in clockwise order. Just make sure that is the case for every triangular surface.
